Why not just re-use the unix-fd-passing interface for CRT FDs?
I mean, you can _get_osfhandle() on a FD, pass the handle, then
_open_osfhandle() on the other end, and pretend that the FD you get
from it actually came like that. It will not have the same value as
the original (and duping it may not always work if it's already
taken), but otherwise it should work. More importantly, it will have
the same interface as UNIX fd passing.

Not that there shouldn't be a W32-specific interface, mind you.
